practically identical. The reports showed
that the water taken from the river at the
three points named was equally impure,
while they also agreed that the water taken
from the well on the Island bar was much
better than the other samples. This con-
drmed the Board in the belief that it was
on the right path, and encouraged it to go
forward. 1t showed that for the city to in
cur the expense necessary to
bring water from any point abO=s the Top
| mill would result in bringing 20 the pumps
exactly the same quality OF water now sup
piled to consumers. In other words, that
the river was equally charged with in
purities 81 along it course, and the Gosrd
was convinced that the point to he reached
was not how to get water free from i'm
puritiss something imprSct,cable-but
haw to get rid of a portion or ell OF theEub-
stances with which the whole stream was
charged from PittsburG down,
This suggested q filter, but when the
Board came to consider that q, 600, 900 gal
Ions per day must be filtered, with the GER
tainty that this amount must be constantly
subject to increase in the future, the mem
bers became convinced that any patent ap-
pliance WAS out OF the question, and that re-
course must be had 10 natural methods.
With this data, and the conclusions ana
convictions resting thereon, the Board be-
took themselves TO thinking, and as q re-
suit they have settled on a plan which does
not approximate in cost ne SINUS men
toned in previous projects, while i'll Ssh4
paratively easy of consummation and rea-
sonabIy certain Of answering the purpose.
The idea is borrowed from a personal visit
to Des Moines, Iowa, and FreepOrt, H.,
aud the application OF it to Wheeling was
the o~utgrOwth Of q study Of the chemists
reports as to the superiority Of the water
in the Island crib.
"In brief, the project is this: Two rows
of t~wenty-foot piles are to be driven on

LAST Friday evening, as the express train
going east came near Judge Pages farm, the
engine struck rail which was lying across
the track, and a short distance further
along a cedar-post was encountered. For
tunately the rail was broken in two and the
post was caught under the cow-catcher and
slid along on the track until the train was
stopped A little further ahead a keg of
spikes was also found on the track. No
damage was done excepta slight breakage to
the cow-catcher; but it was narrow escape,
as the train was two hours late and was run

of the deed has been discovered. -

grogsy. Allrain took advantage OF this
ano armed straight left-hander, but Smith
waroed on the blow and gave a recent In
ioi' on kilrain's forehead. 1t waa nov
MS turn to be the aggressor. and after
landing vigorous right-hander on the riba
ne brought his left into play, twice in sue.
cession, before going down, Kilrain fallins
neavily on Smith. During the next seven.
1een rounds there was very little attempt
AZ nghting. The rounds consisted princi-
paiiy OF wrestling, Kilrain evidently having
wholesome dread of Smiths right.
Round 80, Kilrain. eager for business
popped his left in on Smiths body. Smith
aimed terrific leit-hander at the Yankee,
which the latter by good fortune just
missed. Kilrain not relishing this, dashed
at bis man and brought him down with q
thud.
Rounds 40 to AZ. Very little was done,
save hugging, Kilrain going over to Smiths
corner, with the usual result OF throwing
Smith and falling uppermost.:
Round 48. Smith led on with his left
and Kilrain got home q straight one from
the shoulder on Smiths stomach. Smith
mapped one on Kilrain's head, when the
latter closed with him and again brought
him down.
In the 45th both were inclined to close
and wrestle than to fight. Kilrain had all
the best of the 5Oth round. Up to the
9Oth round Kilrain held the advantage
and had knocked Smith down three times,
while Smith had only once succeeded in
knocking Kilrain down. The Tooth round
had been fought in an hour and forty
minutes. The light was now fast fading.
Smiths seconds urged that the timekeepers
could not see their watches. In the hun
dred and sixth and last round both were
fighting as quickly as at the start, when
Mr.. Atkinson ordered the adjournment of
the contest until next day amid loud
cheers OF the spectators, they being de-
lighted with the pluck shown by both men.
In Sullivan's opinion to-day's fight was the
gamest witnessed in many years between
big men.

There was some desultory talk about r
steam motor for the street car line. re
Council had consented to allow Mr.. Ben
nett three months trial OF the motor, but
he wanted a year, which they would not
give, and they rescinded the permission for
three months. Mr.. Owsley reported that
the Street Railroad Company were exceed
ing their powers under their charter in build
ing the road regardless OF grades and propos-
ing to put in a "Y' at the corner OF Mon
tana and Park streets. The committee
were instructed to exercise due restraint on
the Company. Mr.. Sharp addressed the
Council on his system OF sanitation, recon-
mending that moving night soil in the day
time should be prohibited. The Health
Committee was instructed to draw an or
dinance making that custom illegal. The
Committee on Fire were instructed to con-
slider the advisability Of drawing an ordin-
ance to prevent burning rubbish or other
matter on the streets. Marshal Jolly sug-
gested to the Council that the work beng
done by the police could be done with hall
the present force, saving the city $500 or
$500 per month. He said the number OF
policemen was greater than was required.
It was the sense of the Council that the
matter should be investigated, and upon
motion committee OF three was appointed
to make due inquiry, and report upon the
advisabiity of reducing the force in accord
ance with the suggestion OF the Marshal
and to make any changes they may deem
proper.
